Tom Of Finland Page #2

Why don't you speak the dialect?

My parents were teachers.

This is how we spoke at home.

Why did you have a strange man

in your hotel room?

A man, you say,

stole your passport and wallet.

We talked about pheasant hunting.

Is this yours?

It was found in your room.

Well, I'll return to Finland.

Based on your answers,

I can't confirm you're Finnish.

In German eyes,

you're either a spy or a criminal.

But I know what you are.

I'll report to Consul Alijoki

that the man arrested

by the German police is not Finnish.

I'll let these gentlemen

interrogate you. That's it.

Heikki.

- What?

- Heikki Tapio Alijoki.

Captain Heikki Alijoki.

From the Helsinki Coastal Artillery,

during the war.

- What about him?

- I know him.

- May I speak to him?

- About what?

Pheasant hunting.

- Do you know this man?

- No.

I'm Lieutenant Laaksonen.

We fought together

in Tahtitorninmaiki Hill Park.

We had a number of close calls.

There were no battles

in Tahtitorninmaiki Hill Park.

I meant the air battles over Helsinki.

We served together. I sewed under you.

I see. I see.

Can we speak in private for a moment?

Of course.

Is this some trap?

- Are you trying to trap me?

- I'm the one who's trapped.

- How did you know I was here?

- I didn't.

Your name was mentioned.

I see. I see.

- We know each other. We're both...

- You can't say it.

We're both officers.

This is ridiculous.

Much ado about nothing.

You're asking for trouble

with pictures like these.

It's just a piece of paper.

A dirty picture someone drew for fun.

It's not just a piece of paper.

It's an atomic bomb.

You could go to prison for that.

The police will search your house

and interrogate your family

and colleagues.

I don't care what happens to me,

but my family...

- Can you help me?

- No.

How about you swear

on your officer's honour

that you've never done

anything dishonourable?

Gentlemen.

Laaksonen is a Finnish officer.

He would like to say something.

Yes. I would like to thank you.

And?

I haven't done anything wrong.

We always want to help Finland.

I consider this case closed.

Thank you.

Mr Laaksonen,

my wife and I'd like to invite you

over for dinner in Helsinki some day.

- You're married?

- Of course I am.

But I do sometimes invite

special friends over to play poker...

...when I'm in Helsinki.

You could join us.

But you have to keep quiet about it.

- Artists are always welcome.

- Thank you.

My wife is actually very understanding.

Hi.

Did you have a good time in Berlin?

Did you bring me a gift?

The customs officials took it.

- What are you wearing?

- I have a new hobby.

- What?

- You told me to have fun and live.

Our new tenant is coming over.
